Did you feel underwhelmed by Doom's third episode Inferno?
Well this redux map pack aims to change that. Using only original assets, it is designed to be played as Vanilla Doom, or can be played with your favorite mods! (Brutal Doom is definitely recommended)
Inferno Redux
Doom Inferno Redux is a remake of Doom Episode 3: Inferno. Currently available are E3M1 and E3M2. E3M3 is currently in progress.
*NOTE: Maps are subject to change at any time and are considered incomplete.
If there is enough demand, I'll continue with the rest of the episode faster.

I can definitely try! I'll look into adding them as secret levels after I get a few more of the main episodes maps completed.
Glad you liked it so far! Thanks!

Excellent work, certainly excellent work.
But I have my complaints, although with E3M1 I had no problem, with E3M2 it was impossible for me to find the red key in a normal way, I had to use the IDCLIP to find it.
That aside, I really loved both maps!
Hopefully the rest will come out soon (Especially E3M7 and E3M8, which are the ones that need justice the most in my opinion)
Could you please tell me how the project is going?
I'm really interested in seeing the rest of the maps :)
(This comment will probably appear 2 times as I put it but forgot to log into my account and it is waiting for approval, sorry for the inconvenience)
I played the maps again, yes, I loved them too much, E3M1 is still a perfect level, and as for E3M2, I finally found the Switch that activates the trap with the red key xD, the only thing that you should change of the level would be to place the Switch in a more attractive place or make the wall lower automatically when the player passes through that area.
Excellent work, I'm still excited to see the other levels remastered!
Thanks for all the feedback! I really appreciate it. I'll look into a revamp to make it easier to find the RED Key. I definitely understand what you mean. It's now going to be changed.
I just recently moved across Canada, that said map making has been at a stand still, but I've been back at it and working on E3M3.
